I didn’t think you were gonna do this this year- I kinda beat you to it.
Cool! I was thinking of doing it earlier, but decided I should wait at least until December.
I think I like your format better.
Holiday fans, please post requests to Mobo85’s thread and I’m sure he or I will keep an eye out for you.
Next year I’m going to start on the day after Halloween! :mad:
How about the Alistair Sim version of “A Christmas Carol?” Anybody know when that’s airing?
IMDB doesn’t have any showings for that version of A Christmas Carol listed, so they may not be airing it this year.
It’s weird how many classic Christmas movies don’t get showed any longer. Last year, I couldn’t find a single airing of White Christmas, and only one very editing viewing on Lifetime this year.
“Non-animated” and “animated.” That’s a diplomatic way of referring to them.
Me, I’d just say, “Horrible, bloated, two-hour crapfest filled wall-to-wall with Jim Carrey mugging extra-hard so it will show up through the prosthetics and which confuses ‘emulating the whimsical art of Dr. Seuss’ with ‘migraine-inducing art direction that looks like it had some connection to Dr. Seuss twenty iterations ago’” and “the good one.”
But I commend your dedication to brevity, sir.
Locked at the request of the OP.
